Photography Asked by archiebaldry on February 15, 2021
What does the Apple .aae file extension stand for? I presume it stands for something, as file extensions usually do.
Arbitrary Apple Extension is my best guess, but Google offers no results.
AA probably stands for Apple Aperture, which was probably the origin of the format. Apple Aperture has been discontinued. E may stand for Edit, since the file contains image edit history. But no one really knows, so it's an Arbitrary Apple Extension.

An AAE file contains edits made to an image using the Photos app on an iOS device. It is used to transfer non-destructive edits a user has made to .JPG images in iOS to the macOS system. AAE files can be found accompanying the images for which they contain edits.
What is File Extension AAE and How Do You Open It
An .AAE file is simply the edits that have been made to an existing photo on an Apple device. An AAE file can be deleted without erasing the actual photo, but you will lose all edits you have made to the file. The edit data is saved in an XML format that can be easily viewed in a text editor like Notepad.
